Key Topics

KEYNOTES & PITCHES and PANELS exploring generative AI, Web3, lab-to-market innovation, climate, enterprise AI, and governance.

Examining ChatGPT, Bard and Generative AI at large

What is the breakthrough behind generative AI and ChatGPT, and what industry applications, business models, and cybersecurity implications will we see emerge? Which industries will be disrupted (and when)? What will be the impact on skills and jobs?

Intersection of AI and Web3, the next growth horizon?

From data processing to supply chain management and from fraud detection to process automation, the potential of AI and blockchain working together is ubiquitous. It promises to boost trust in AI and provide new ways to govern human-machine interactions. But what potential does the interplay of these technologies already offer to enterprises and SMEs today? What new opportunities do they open up for innovators? And how can the technologies be used for new forms of governance?

AI Innovations, from the lab to the market

Science serves as the breeding ground for breakthrough innovations. Europe and Germany are strong in AI research but weak in commercialization. What AI advances are currently being developed in labs, and how can they be turned into viable, scalable solutions? How are companies successfully spun out of universities?

AI at the interface of Climate Change & Sustainability

AI is an important tool in the fight against climate change, for example by enabling smart grids or climate models, and at the same time it emits — whether through the power consumption of data centers or the production of semiconductors. How can we leverage AI to fight climate change? How can we make AI green?

What it takes to build an AI centered enterprise

How to successfully introduce and holistically leverage AI and robotic innovations across company functions, from HR to production and finance to marketing? How can corporates and SMEs boost their competitiveness and efficiency with the implementation of AI solutions?

The role of AI governance and regulation for innovators

What does the increasing importance of explainable, trusted and responsible AI, Privacy, AI Regulation (AI Act) mean for my business and product development? What regulatory initiatives are globally emerging and shaping markets?
